[Windows Phone 7 General] Schismal:
Good lord, some of you guys are hilariously overreacting to the VERY FIRST UPDATE of this nascent platform.

I'm just like the rest of you and would love to see MS to bypass the carriers when distributing updates. And maybe they will in the future, or at least refine the process so there's not such a delay. But let's be honest: if you weren't willing to cut MS some slack on the growing pains of their

brand new OS

, then you honestly had no business being an early adopter.

Some amount of criticism is warranted, certainly now and likely in the future. If nothng more than to keep MS from feeling complacent. And go ahead and trade in your WP7 device if a tiny NoDo delay was really enough to put you over the edge, because you'd clearly be happier on a different platform. But repeatedly *****ing about it up and down these forums after the fact is just a tad pathetic.

Whether or not we see you guys return to us post-Mango, I wish y'all the best in your mobile OS of choice. In the meantime, you might consider growing some thicker skin.
[Windows Phone 7 General] munkeyphyst:
Hey Schismal,

You're being reasonable and logical. No fair... :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
Google works off of one device. The Nexus device. Look how long it took the Nexus One to get Gingerbread, not that it has been practically replaced by the Nexus S. Google devices are also stock bone Android.

Think a little.

Other manufacturers have to tailorer the Android code base to work on their devices.

They have to integrate their software, layer their skins on top. Integrate media codecs and software they licensed from other entities (Thinkfree Office, etc.).

Then the carriers need to integrate their Value-Add Software (MobiTV, Navigator, Visual Voicemail, etc.).

Between all of this, they have to QA everything and make sure nothing gets broken.

If an update breaks a carrier app, the carrier sends it back to the Manufacturer because they won't OTA it if it breaks their value-add software (certainly they will not remove it). If a Carrier App breaks an OEM component then it's obvious what happens there.

Yes, Android OEMs have to do like 5x the work Microsoft has to do. There is also the issue of modifying Android code to optimize the JIT for different SoCs and whatnot, developing drivers for components that Google doesn't have to code for (cause that component is not in the Nexus phone, or they use a different one, etc.).

Tons of work.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
And perhaps the WP7 fans should do the same. They act like we just drew a picture of their mum and posted it on the forums...

Mod edit - lets keep religion out of it thank-you.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Schismal:
Haha, spoilsport over here, I know. ;)

Anyone unable to admit that every major mobile OS has both positives and negatives is either uninformed or being dishonest.

That said, when some folks come on the WP7 forums constantly throwing punches, I don't think it's unreasonable for some people to get defensive. I expect Android fans would react the same were our positions reversed.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vangrieg:
Not all of them. The difference between devices ROMs is most often just this OEM part, with absolutely identical SYS. Try and see how device performance may vary. And that NoDo contains device-specific improvements (read: OEM code) is official information.
[Windows Phone 7 General] amtrakcn:
While I still doubt if all these steps really are 5X work, I recall when I receive my Captivate, myAT&T app crashes on stock firmware.

Not to mention some manufactures did not work out the JIT until 2.3 and other examples so on...

Most Nexus updates are just bug fixes, and Android 0.1 update does not happen that frequently, mostly more than 5 months. Also some update, like Froyo to Gingerbread, did not bring more stuff than NoDo.

______________________________________________________

Hey there,

do one of you know how I can check the Model ID and Language ID of my device?

I need the informations to choose the right NoDo RUU.

With other word: Is my device an Europe, DE, SPA, UK or whatever device, because I want to install the new NoDo Update.

With the EUR RUU it does not work...

And by the way an other question:

Which ROM version is requiered to unlock the device to a developer device?

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] usafle:
I had a N1 previously and it used to pair with my Uconnect in my SRT without any problems. Now this Tbolt pairs and then promptly disconnects and will not re-establish the connection ever again.

Is this a different Bluetooth version then the N1? Anyone else having issues with the TBolt connecting AND maintaining a connection with any of their B.T. equipment?

Any suggestions on what I should try differently?

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] usafle:
The T-Bolt connects to my Jabra headset fine. I haven't installed any power mgmt apps that would be shutting off the BT.

It connects to my UConnect System in my Mopar and stays connected for 10 seconds and the disconnects itself. I can shut off the car , reboot the phone and turn on the car, turn on the phone and it will re-connect again for another 10 seconds and disconnect itself.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azturbomini:
I have Uconnect also but no issues. Did you clear your old N1 from Uconnect? Not that that should matter but don't know what else to offer...
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gknowmx:
I have a Lubix NC1. Pairs with TBolt and works fine, but when the display shuts off, so does the Bluetooth. Phone connection stays and I can manually restart the Bluetooth, then same thing happens. Any ideas? Thanks.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] usafle:
Yea, I deleted the N1 from there. Might be something going on with the ROM, as that is the only option I have left that I can guess at?
[Atrix 4G General] ekerbuddyeker:
So far, it doesn't feel any differently, although I have to say that I never suffered from many of the issues other mentioned. Device feels just as snappy as before. I will be watching battery life today.
[Atrix 4G General] bbtheory:
Not noticing any significant differences here either. I didn't have any problems before the update except for the screen color calibration issue where yellows appear brown. That issue does not appear to be addressed in this update.

The update release says the fingerprint recognition has improved. If it has, it still takes a good three swipes on average for mine to unlock, so that is no better than before IMHO.
[Atrix 4G General] naturefreak85:
Haven't tested battery life but using it side by side with my friends atrix without the update mine is a bit smoother. Fingerprint recognition is better and the usb mass storage mode issue I had is resolved apparently.

Sent from my MB860
[Atrix 4G General] ekerbuddyeker:
On fingerprint. I sometimes recalibrate it by doing th whole fingerprint setup again. Works well for a while. Perhaps weather changes the skin?
[Atrix 4G General] mrshowtime:
quick question, were all of you beta testers or were any of you able to update your atrix yourself?

[Atrix 4G General] live4nyy:
Battery on mine has gotten worse. I was able to get somewhere around 30 hours of use with 5-6 hours of display time but no I can't even get to the 24 hour mark with just a couple hours of screen time.

I have noticed the issue but only when my fingers are in the same position. If I keep moving them I have no issue at all.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyrex78:
Hi guys

I recently bought factory unlocked uk galaxy tab for my mum!

Everything was working perfectly except that she could not write in a certain language(arabic) nor see connected words while surfing the net. So i had a look at few website and i came a cross a custom rom(arabic) and i downloaded it with Odin3

After successful flash to my tab i was able to use the arabic language and see connected words on the net, but i lost Samsung movies icon or application and samsung games and i cant find it in the android market or samsung store.

Even though its for her and she does not care about movies or games but the tab is acting weird! Freeze very frequently and i need to turn it off every now and then.

My question is how to get back the uk or European version OS to my tab.

Any help is appreciated

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] byakkotai:
Hi, I apologise if this has already been recapped elsewhere but I am really struggling to find an solution that I can actually use.

Basically, my partner has a SGS GT-i9000 running 2.1 update-1 and it has become unusable due to lagging and short battery life.

I have a Desire HD which I have managed to root and install CM7 on and I want to be able to help her install a custom ROM. Based solely on looks I would like to get her Darky's ROM.

I have searched around the web and have come up short as to how to go from basic handset all the way to having a custom ROM installed. Can anyone advise the easiest and safest way to get this done?

Again, apologies if this is the wrong forum or if this is answered elsewhere.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Basically follow the instructions in the individual rom post FAQs etc

I am looking for new earphones but want a mic as I will be using them with my HD2 running Android... Willing to spend up to £100.00 and may go slightly above this for the right earphones. What would you recommend? I don't mind whether they are Bluetooth or not as I am always near a PC, so I can easily charge the phone.

I currently own a pair of Sony DR BT20NX which are Bluetooth and also use MDR AS40EX, when the Bluetooth's run out of battery :)

i try to cooked rom and add app2sd and that didn't work , at end i install CYANOGENMOD M build #31 And i flash data2ext-CM-test5-ish.zip and before that i make my sd like this

by using GParted-live

par1 : around 6GB fat32

par2 : around 2GB ext2

par3 : around 32 MB Linux swap

and i use this command and the commands works:

mke2fs-m0 -Ldata -b4096 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

data2ext --enable

but NOTHNG work and get crazy i need to install on sdddddddd

dose data2ext work on CYANOGENMOD M build #31 or not ??? is there any solution please
[Legend Android Development] TheGrammarFreak:
Should do, use the latest version of data2ext though
[Legend Android Development] FORCOMM:
this is not the last one ???

data2ext-CM-test5-ish.zip

anther question if the data2ext work the internal phone memory will show the sd ext or the phone internet one ???
[Legend Android Development] TheGrammarFreak:
No, check my thread on data2ext for the latest version. ext2 is v7 I think. If it's worked the phone will see the ext partition as the internal memory. So if you look at the storage thing in about phone it should show the size of the ext partition.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DexterDawg:
I have seached and find reference to this pattern in multiple posts, but never an answer to what it means. Ever since ec05 my phone randomly does the pattern sometimes with no apparent problems or sometimes it happens while loading an app and then it force closes.

Thanks!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] THEALMOST:
try re-flashing and that should solve your problem ;)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DexterDawg:
Thanks, I will. I was just thinking there must be a meaning to the pattern. I seem to remember my moment did that once in a while also.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jojo08:
Any update if re-flashing fixed it? I'm having that problem as well, so odin again back to DI18 then flash using the update.zip again?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DexterDawg:
I have been busy all weekend and haven't had time. Will post results tomorrow. I just think there must be a description of what that means since I have had it happen on another android device also.

I think ultimately it may be a bad flash though because randomly I lose my signal and it doesn't come back until a reset. This happens when I am in a low signal area.

for what its worth, i wend to eb13 with the samsung tool then to ec05 with the update.zip and its still happening though not as frequent, can't even use my phone as my alarm as it will crash with that vibrate pattern and i'll have to pull the battery, looks like may need to take it to sprint again...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lafronz:
Did you root/remove apps? If so please list what you removed.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jojo08:
I have rooted before but when I was having problems with stability wanted to make sure I was on stock so both times I upgraded to ec05 its been stock once upgraded from di18 (odined back to it) and currently from eb13 (using samsung exe)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DexterDawg:
Sorry it took so long to get back here.

I finally had time yesterday to go back to DI18. I couldn't remember the hard reset recommendations so I did that before and after running Odin. I was going to run the update.zip, but got sidetracked. When I got back to my phone it had d/l the OTA. I ran that then did another hard reset and cleared the cache. Then I ran 2.5.5 one click, and I may have even did one more hard reset at that time. (I know a little anal)

I also formatted my SD card (I think I read somewhere that this can be an issue also)

Since then I restored user apps and data through titanium and I have not had a single problem with the vibrate error.

The only thing I haven't tried on my phone is Sprint ID.

I'm thinking there are four possibilities, my flash to di18 may have been bad, the update.zip I used was slightly corrupted or didn't install properly, the SD card had issues now solved by the format, or it's Sprint ID.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poit:
The 1-3 vibrate thing means an app has force-closed. If you are getting a lot of this after flashing a new rom and restoring apps and data, it probably means that the data is corrupted or not in a format that the new rom can deal with.

The only time this has happened to me is after I have gone from a rom based on eclair to a rom based on froyo, and even then it was the phone data, not the app data.
[Milestone XT720 General] helmi666:
Greeting guys,

The guys at Milestone & Droid's forum had successfully ported CM7 to their phone. Due to the locked bootloader and no official froyo update, the lease we can do is porting CM6 to our phone.

Due to my limited experience on rom cooking, i would like to seek guide and help from the experts. thank you.

[Milestone XT720 General] Vistaus:
Dexter 1.3 vanilla and Dexter 1.3 with bugfix v2 and 3 is rock solid here, so dunno what you're talking about.
[Milestone XT720 General] spiderx_mm:
IMHO, If you just want a stable ROM,we should give our devs some time so they can iron out the issues-in-hand. They're not working with team as CM guys, so please be patient.

But on the other hand, you're a great big fan of CM and currently stuck with XT which can't get CM out of the box, you may try. :)
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
Getting an unofficial CM on XT720 is my ultimate goal, but I don't know how to do it yet. I'm learning about Android by fixing bugs/tweaking Dexter's ROM.

I pulled the CM6 sources and tried to build and follow the instructions on nadlabak's website. It seems like CM6 hasn't been built in a while so there are some bit-rot problems. For example it can't pull down the rom-manager stuff. I don't know if we need that or not. We don't (yet?) have rom-manager for XT720. Then there's the issue of the proprietary files. The proprietary files that need to be saved for Milestone (nadlabak's extract-files.sh script) doesn't match the files on XT720. So we'll have to work that out as well.
[Milestone XT720 General] helmi666:
I think they use Androidiani Open recover instead of Rom Manager on Milestone's CM.

I feel that the more people involve on this project the better. Just my thought. :)
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
What I meant was that compiling cm2mm 6 requires the ROM-Manager source code, but the download of that source fails. I think the git just moved, but I haven't tried chasing it down yet.

Just let me know what you need. I'll try my best to ask around. I really hope more people will join this 'Quest' :P
